Download vlc media player sfs, qt libs sfs from my repo and test vlc. It might work better. If not...I dont have much more options to offer.
If I get reports that other people have problems I start to hunt some broken package.

I havent changed any of the default Barry Kauler specs in this build regarding to the multimedia backends, libs or dependencies.

Nooby. There were enough references to what distro those pets were meant to.
You can experiment with pets and sfs meant to squeeze dpup, but it is up to you how they work or does not work in Upup Precise or other distro outside Dpup Exprimo.
I wont test them for users in Upup Precise. Use and test them at your own risk.Last edited by pemasu on Wed 21 Nov 2012, 07:42; edited 2 times in total

Upup Precise 5.4.X.4 has been uploaded. I used latest woof with all fixes through it.

PPM package manager should check if dependencies are up to date, if not...it asks to update ubuntu databases.Which updates now really fast.

Above is needed because precise update repos are available and the packages are updated there frequently. So you also get some updated core - system files from this build.

For example usable Firefox-17.0 was there, tested it and worked fine.

The repos have been configured to use fastest one first, at least for me. I got firefox-17 in about 10 seconds from PPM.

Pburn and Pmusic updated, Mhwaveedit updated, supports ladspa plugins now. Type ladspa in PPM and you get multiple plugin choices to choose. Don570 has also created a pet from one large plugin set.

Xchat has now unigue default name string so that puppylinux users are not confused from changing username.

This build is still quite near of the official Precise Puppy. I would call it PuP build: Pemasubly unofficial Puppy.....lol

Hi Pemasu,
on Precise 5.4.X.4 installed on Dell620 laptop:
something strange i cannot reproduce ...
while working with gnumeric on a file stored on a USB memory stick (stick i'm using since ca. 4 years), the stick suddenly has been seen as "read only" with an "input/output error" message when saving to / or deleting a file.
The files name had no accent nor «exotic» character in it ...??

I have also to report that just before I accidentaly closed the lid of the laptop getting it to «sleep mode»; opening the lid resumed to previous mode, with gnumeric running again on the currently opened file.

...the stick suddenly has been seen as "read only" with an "input/output error" message ... but opening the usb stick with rox file manager showed filenames coloured in red with exclamation mark mini-icons.
